@vidak when you say primer, what kinda thing do you want to know? It just works out of the box. The difficult thing I guess is getting used to beginner-like define-application-frame invocations. Here's one:
(define-application-frame vidaks-app (standard-application-frame) ()
(:panes (int :interactor) (app :application :display-function 'display-app))
(:layouts (Default (horizontally () int app)))
go for broke! Oh that defines
(define-vidaks-app-command (com-foo :menu t) () (print 'hi))

@vidak @screwtape I've mostly been looking through documentation and the clim-examples code in McCLIM's repo. But I've also been more focused on backend learning.

This Guided Tour may serve as a quick primer for an app writer's view: https://dept-info.labri.fr/~strandh/guided-tour.pdf

i wanna go digging through kilobaud magazine again, looking for cool BASIC games

i love that "software patch" comes literally from the fact that people would fix errors in punch cards by patching it over with tape

i still need to buy an EEPROM programmer...

@tapesinside Akkoma has docs specifically for *BSDs https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable-docs/installation/freebsd_en/

For webserver you can use nginx or httpd. (Or whatever else you want)

For nextcloud there's this https://www.freshports.org/www/owncloud

OpenBSD is much easier to grasp imho, same software listed here is available for either.

You'll be expected to read a lot either way. Apart for the 'Absolute *BSD' series, these two I recommend - The latter makes sense if you decide to use httpd:

For the prompt stellar to Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin (1900-1979), who discovered that hydrogen & helium are the most common elements in stars & hence the universe.⁠

Born England, she won a scholarship to Newnham College at Cambridge in 1919 where she heard a lecture which changed her life. She wrote, “My world had been so shaken that I experienced something very like a nervous breakdown.” 🧵

maybe the weird economy sim game i am dreaming of doesn't exist yet...

openttd and stellaris are about half way there

i just like clicky building things...

I think phones are undergoing carcinization.

- hard outer shell
- compound "eyes"
- clicking noises
- no audio jack

current projects, just taking stock--don't mind me...

  • clim gopher browser for mezzano
  • do a final proof-read of dungeon of doom, and do a release on sourcehut
  • the common lisp tamagotchi
  • the @permacomputer project also still lives

please don't also forget that

the permacomputing matrix chat still exists!

does anyone have a primer on CLIM?

i know @screwtape has been doing a lot of work on this front--?

ugh i had a working mezzano development environment before my workstation lucretics died ;0;

common lisp tamagotchi update time

okay updated the pet idle animation routine to work in common lisp

kinda weird looking at the differences between elisp and common lisp

still kinda on the fence about repl or no repl, if i have a repl i can just jump straight into evaluating functions...

anyway you can follow along here

@eli_oat wow this is awesome!!! i wanna get me some system 7 hardware so bad...

OH: apple ii with forth ROM instead of applesoft ROM

🤔🤔🤔



Fascists dressed in police uniform are terrorising civilians with firearms, blunt force weapons and chemical weapons. Where are the people who are supposed to serve and protect these civilians? Oh wait, they are the terrorists, and they are protecting war criminals instead of civilians. It is only fitting that they too are using weapons that would constitute a war crime had they been used in a war.

The guy removing baked lighting from Bloodborne is committing art crimes and should be tried at The Hague.
How the hell do you think the 2nd images look better just because it has dynamic lighting.
